The altar people, who had never experienced this kind of battle, were dizzy by what Lan En said in the midst of stumbling.

Lan En also learned his name in the process, a man named Haruchang.

In the end, Harucho set the price of [Floating Boat Crossing] at two, and a total of three with [Devouring God].

That's half the price from before. As long as Lan En catches the two big carps in the tributary under the cliff wall of the house in Hirata Village, he will be able to make it up.

Lan En felt that although he was eager for the scales of the Treasure Carp, he was not in a hurry, as if he still had a lot of time to collect. That's why it's so easy to bargain.

This feeling Lan En had felt in the sorceresses.

It is estimated that this guy is also an immortal with a short lifespan. It is also unknown what purpose he collected such scales.

It can't be put on yourself, right? Squid to carp?

Lan En propped up the boat and swam on the Longquan River, shaking his head at the thought of this, and laughed dumbly.

——

"Lord Lann, are you back? Butterfly-sama asks you to go straight to the inner house when you come back. ”

Now, the leader of the guards at the gate of Hiratano has become Kotaro.

Although he has been fighting all night, and his mother was killed by bandits last night. But the reward of finally becoming a low-ranking samurai still motivates him to work diligently.

After all, this was already the best outcome that he and his mother could imagine in their intended lives.

"Thanks, Kotaro."

Lan En waved his hand in thanks as he walked inside.

And the current low-level samurai, who was honestly frightened, immediately bent down ninety degrees and bowed towards Lan En.

"You're serious! Can't! ”

The witcher walked over with a frown.

The friendship and communication they have cultivated in the past ten days or so are gone after a redivision of identities.

Although I know that it is not Kotaro's fault, but the social atmosphere caused by Toei's deep-rooted hierarchy.

But he still couldn't help but feel a kind of 'sad and angry with Kotaro'.

Lan En walked all the way to the inner house, and the wolf appeared in front of him silently as he first approached.

"Go to the hidden Buddha hall, someone wants to see you."

Lan En frowned at his sudden appearance.

"You're here, who's watching over there? Butterfly? Then who wants to see me? ”

The wolf's face and tone of voice did not change.

"Go, that's it."

With that, the dwarf ninja flicked the hook lock again and flew out into nowhere.

The house where the hidden temple is located is one of the few preserved houses in the inner house.

Lan En lifted the tatami mat inside, all the way down.

The door of the Buddha hall was not closed, and Lan En could see the bundled owl at the door, imprisoned in front of the eleven-faced Guanyin statue.

And in front of him, there was a tall and thin old man.

Wearing a loose yukata, he is about the same height as Lan En and Nogami Gensai, both of whom are at the level of 1.9 meters.

But through the outline of the loose yukata, his musculature was slightly visible. Much like Nogami Gensai, beneath the loose skin is a strange muscle tissue that is still tight and strong.

It's just that it seems that this old man is much older than Nogami Gensai, and it is estimated that he is more than seventy.

But none of that was a reason for Ryan to stand in the doorway and not enter.

The witcher stood at the door of the temple, and he could step into it with a slight movement.

But he frowned at this point, and the boots with the outer plate armor rose and fell on that line.

"Murderous deterrence. But it feels so sharp like it is. Sword. ”

The old man had his back to the door, but Lan En had the horror of being brushed against his cheek by a blade even if he stepped over the door slightly.

Unconsciously, in Lan En's body, the two hearts began to beat faster, and the hairs stood up one by one.

This is a sign of being in combat shape.

The witcher's hesitation at the door lasted less than five seconds. Then he squinted his eyes slightly and stepped directly into the Buddhist hall.

The sound of boots tapping on the ground is undisguised.

The owl, whose limbs had been broken, raised his head, and the old man with his back to the gate turned his body slightly.

"You're really not ordinary, a samurai of the Ming Kingdom."

It was the lanky old man who spoke, and Lan only saw his face now.

The thinning hair is tied into the head of the moon generation, and one eye is clear and sharp. The voice is hard to hide the old, but it is still loud and heroic.

He looked Lan up and down.

Look at his muscles, his bones, his armor, and the sword on his back. The more he looked at it, the more interested the smile on the old man's face grew.

"I wanted to meet you early in the morning. A native of the Ming Kingdom, learning Nanban swordsmanship, came to Wei Ming to find a job cutting people, which sounds very interesting. It just so happened that an old friend here made this incident again."

"Hey, Yixin, you really don't have face when you say that."

There was a flash of surprise in the cat's eyes.

In the country of Reina, he has a sharp aura that can make him feel terrifying, except for the legendary [Sword Master] - Reina is single-minded, and he doesn't think about it.

Now, the two of them are talking and laughing, and if you exclude the broken limbs of the giant ninja, it really doesn't look like the relationship between the betrayer and the betrayed at all.

"Catch the owl, shut up."

Reina didn't turn his head to look at the owl, just laughed like an old friend.

"Butterfly promised to teach you [Reed Celebrity]? That's right, I'll teach it myself. ”

"That's a real honor."

Lan En didn't show any emotion.

Although it is a good thing to be taught by the founder of [Reed Celebrity] himself, this guy's breath before he stepped into the Buddha hall just now was not trying to teach people, he obviously wanted to cut people!

Edina smiled playfully.

"Oh? Did you feel it just now? I thought that Nanban martial arts would not pay too much attention to things like 'momentum' and 'spirit'. ”

"You're laughing, Lord Ichishin." Lan En walked calmly and his voice was calm.

"In any kind of martial arts, it is impossible to ignore 'momentum'. Even if you practice 'blind fighting' specifically, you have to feel the 'momentum of the sound', right? The same is true of Nanban martial arts. ”

"Haha! Well said! Martial arts always have something in common, after all, to put it bluntly, they are all techniques created for the purpose of killing! Take it! ”

The thin old man laughed heroically as he took out a thread-bound book from his bosom and threw it to Lan En, who walked to his side.

The witcher raised his hand delicately, and the thread-bound book was in his hand.

Unfold it and take a look, the three big characters of "Reed Celebrities" are impressively on the cover.

Flip it inside, the easy-to-understand text, and then match it with a simple move diagram like a stickman.

Compared to the "Lonely Shadow Ninja Moves Book" that ghosts can't understand. Is this really the famous "Reed Celebrity"?

Lan Enhu raised his eyes suspiciously, his gaze wandering back and forth between the book and the old man.

"Don't look at me like that, [Reed Celebrity] is not the kind of complicated thing that needs to be hidden. All the people of the reeds will practice this sword art, and the difference is only in the degree of mastery. If it's too complicated, you can't generalize it. ”
